Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor reportedly erupted into an explosive rant as he was booted out of Royal Lodge and transported to Wood Farm in Sandringham.<\/p>\n

The disgraced ex-prince was forced to leave his 30-room Windsor mansion earlier this month following orders from his brother, King Charles, over his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.<\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s understood Andrew, 66, did not leave Royal Lodge without a fight and continues to refuse to \u201ctake any responsibility\u201d for his alleged behaviour.<\/p>\n

\"King<\/p>\n

According to an insider, the former Duke of York was so reluctant to leave his home of two decades that he repeatedly yelled: \u201cI\u2019m the Queen\u2019s second son, you can\u2019t do this to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe refused to leave or take any responsibility,\u201d a royal source told The Sun of the “deluded” ex-prince.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is extraordinary he chose to use the Queen\u2019s name in his defence,” the insider continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo one is quite sure if the reality of his dire situation has hit home even yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Andrew, who was frequently described as Queen Elizabeth\u2019s favourite son, was evicted from Royal Lodge in the middle of the night on February 2.<\/p>\n

He then secretly moved into Wood Farm, where he is expected to stay until renovations are complete on nearby Marsh Farm in April.<\/p>\n

After just over two weeks at his new residence, Andrew was arrested<\/a> on the morning of his 66th birthday and\u00a0taken to Aylsham police station on suspicion of misconduct in public office.<\/p>\n

Andrew is accused of sharing confidential information with Jeffrey Epstein during his time as a UK trade envoy.<\/p>\n

He allegedly forwarded reports of visits to Singapore, Hong Kong, and Vietnam to the late paedophile, as well as details of investment opportunities in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

After 12 hours in police custody, Andrew was released without charge and returned to Wood Farm.<\/p>\n

He remains under investigation, and searches at Royal Lodge are continuing.<\/p>\n

King Charles issued an unprecedented statement<\/a> shortly after his brother\u2019s arrest, sharing his \u201cdeepest concern\u201d and confirming police had his \u201cwholehearted support and co-operation\u201d in their investigations.<\/p>\n

“I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office,” the King began his statement.<\/p>\n

“What now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities.<\/p>\n

\"\u2018He\u2019s<\/p>\n

“In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation.”<\/p>\n

Continuing his extraordinary message, the monarch made it clear exactly where he stands with Andrew.<\/p>\n

“Let me state clearly: the law must take its course,” he said.<\/p>\n

“As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter. Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all. Charles R.”<\/p>\n

Andrew has continuously denied any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor reportedly erupted into an explosive rant as he was booted out of Royal Lodge and transported…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":142279,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[15345,9,24,63,6614,1312,122,124,123],"class_list":["post-142278","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-prince-andrew","tag-queen-elizabeth-ii","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/142278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=142278"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/142278\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/142279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=142278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=142278"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=142278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
